Oral History of George E. Comstock
• Computer • History Museum Oral History of George E. Comstock Interviewed by: Gardner Hendrie Recorded: August 13, 2003 Mountain View, California CHM Reference number: X2727.2004 © 2004 Computer History Museum Oral History of George E. Comstock Gardner Hendrie: George I'd probably like to start really far back, where you were born and grew up. George Comstock: Well gosh, if you were to ask my wife that question she might answer that I never have grown up <laughs>. But taking it in a more literal sense, I was born in Canandaigua, New York, but only lived there for a year, so I have relatively little memory of it. My first memories really are of Worcester, Massachusetts where my parents moved when I was five years old. So I grew up in Worcester. And I was about nine years old when I got acquainted with the older brother of one of my playmates, Al Howell, they lived across the street from where I lived and he at the age of 15 was an avid model airplane builder. So he got me involved at the age of nine in learning how to build model airplanes, and that became quite a career for me during grammar school and high school. I must have built several hundred models before I was done including maybe a hundred gas models and lost a few in cumulus clouds, you know <laughs>. So that got me started on an engineering career, really, that's why I mention it, 'cause he went on to go to school at Worcester Tech (WPI), became a mechanical engineer and young George figured there couldn't be anything better to do than what Al Howell did, so I went to Worcester Tech and became a mechanical engineer, I graduated in 1945with a BS in mechanical engineering.

History of Telegraphy from the Teletype Museum
History of Telegraphy from the Teletype Museum Ransom D. Slayton, Consultant 1983 (Document Notes) The Teletype Museum display was set up several years ago by Charley Hill and Ken Lovitt, and served for some time as a magnet attraction for visitors to the Teletype plant. Later, due to the compelling demand for more office space as the company expanded, the Museum was dismantled and the equipment on display sent to storage. A record set of slide pictures was made just before this occurred, and this program is a "walk through" of the Museum as it appeared in its better days. join us for a trip back into the History of the Telegraph Art as illustrated by the machines developed by the in- ventors who contributed so much to communications progress in the old days. 1. Our greeting is an appropriate "START HERE" with the beginning of a series of numbered captions covering various steps in THE HISTORY OF TELE- GRAPHY. Early forms, before 1820 include semaphores and electro-chemical signaling methods, but historical records tell of signal fires, smoke sig- nals, and even an "encoded torch" system in which the lighted torches were placed in numbered notches on top of high walls, the combinations of tor- ches thus indicating the letters, numbers or pre-selected words being transmitted. It was great for both day and night, but look out for rain or fog!! 2. Most people think of telegraphy in terms of the old Morse code Key and Sounder, so this was the first display. The Sounder had a reflector box behind it, amplifying the clicks of the "Dots and Dashes" to the operator's ears.

I base these projects upon the writings of Georges Perec (1936-82). Perec saw endotics as a form of quotidian studies characterised by an internal perspective: everyday situations should be described from the vantage point of those already immersed in them, not from the position of an outsider.

INIS Pioneering Information Management: the Early Days of Computerized Acquisition, Processing and Storage of Data at the IAEA
Nuclear Information Newsletter www.iaea.org/inis ISSN 2410-4940 (online) No. 17, October 2015 45th INIS Anniversary Newsletter INIS Pioneering Information Management: The early days of computerized acquisition, processing and storage of data at the IAEA In his third Law, British author, Sir Arthur C. Clarke, states that “any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic”. When a technology becomes estranged due to the inevitable process of obsolescence, it becomes alien to the untrained eye, unfamiliar and obscure – elements that possibly add up on the original mystique of early computers. In this article we will take a look at a number of early information technologies, some gone, some forgotten, some still Riccardo Rubini has been alive-and-well, to unveil the magic that has greatly contributed to INIS, working in the field of throughout its 45 year journey in the realms of nuclear culture for Information Technology for over twelve years, both in the private peaceful uses. and public sector.

An IBM System/360 together with peripherals; the console is visible in the forefront. In the beginning, there was the computer: heralded as a “Giant Brain” by the press, the first computers of the 1940s, such as the ENIAC, were a jumble of vacuum tubes, crystal diodes, relays, resistors and capacitors, over a million of hand-soldered joints, spreading over an entire building: all with the same computing power as that of a modern pocket calculator.

You won’t be able to resist that Texan drawl and soon enough you’ll be “ya’ll”-ing with the rest of them. Texans are a friendly bunch, and they love their cowboy hats and boots. Fun fact: Deep Ellum is well known for its diverse arts and entertainment culture, probably because it has more bars and nightclubs than any other district in the city. In the 1920s, it was a haven for jazz and blues artists such as Blind Lemon Jefferson, Huddie “Lead Belly” Ledbetter and Bessie Smith.

Identifying the Physical Source of the Bush Memos
WORK IN PROGRESS Initially, this was just a small work examining just a single component of the Bush Memos. Because of recent interest in the work, however, I have been asked to push the project thorough to completion – seeing if this information might be useful for tracking down the origin of the Bush memos. That said, this report will continuously develop until the project is completed. The next step will be a statistical evaluation of commonly and uncommonly used characters. David Hailey REPORT Toward Identifying the Font Families in the Bush Memos David E Hailey, Jr., Principal Investigator Associate Professor of Technical Communications Utah State University ABSTRACT The following evidence from a forensic examination of the Bush memos indicates that they were typed on a typewriter: 1. The specific font used is from a typewriter family in common use since (circa) 1905. 2. The characters “e,” “t,” “s,” and “a” show indications of physical damage and/or wear. 3. The characters that are seldom used (e.g., numbers) show few indicators of damage or wear. 4. The consistent quality of individual character types throughout the memos seem to be inconsistent with a theory their defects are caused by random artifacts from copying, but may be consistent with worn platen and variations in paper quality. 5. Overlapping characters occasionally indicate paper deformation consistent with hammered impressions. 6. Critical indicators of digital production are missing. Implications are that there is nothing in this evidence that would indicate the memos are inauthentic. Furthermore, from the point of view of the physical evidence in the documents (excluding any rhetorical evidence or external evidence, which is not examined in this study) I believe that no amount of additional research on the part of CBS would have lead them to exclude the documents from their 60 Minutes report.
